Top Things that could get you Arrested

It’s embarrassing and infuriating when one gets arrested. What is even worse is getting arrested for a crime you didn’t know exists. Imagine going through your normal life and doing your normal things then a policeman from nowhere comes and arrests you for doing something you’ve been doing all your life. Or even playing an innocent joke on someone then you are told there is a law against that. There are things you need to think twice before doing if you want to be on the right side of the law. Have a look at 10 weird things that could get you arrested.

1-T-Shirt Written ‘I Have Drugs’

It’s a bad thing to commit a crime, but it’s worse and stupid to wear a T-shirt indicating what criminal activity you are into. A 50 year old John Balmer from Florida attracted police with his T-Shirt that read ‘Who needs drugs? No, seriously, I have drugs’. This was not a prank or a joke as it was later found out that he was carrying marijuana and methamphetamine. At least he learnt that one does not advertise a criminal activity and if you have to advertise, don’t use a T-Shirt.

6. Farting on a Person

Lawrence Michael Jonap, a 45 year old policeman from Lago Vista Police Department in Texas was arrested for hitting and farting on a fellow officer’s face. The crimes happened in two days. On the first day Jonap walked to the victim, kicked him while laughing. The second day Jonap hit him with a notebook on the head, flicked his ear and farted in his face. Jonap was charged with ‘assault with injury’ a crime that can lead to a one year sentence and a fine of 4,000 dollars.

3. Breaking into Jail

Monique Deshawn Armstrong, a 22 year old lady from Colorado, broke into jail to free her brother who had been arrested. She drove to the Mesa County Jail at 4 in the morning and attempted to get through razor wires and cell windows. The perimeter fence alarm sounded and the police came, found her car and traced her. She was caught, arrested and charged with criminal trespass, criminal mischief and violating bail-bond conditions. Her brother was released on bond just five hours later.

4. Giving Wedgies

18 year old Charles Ross from Bradenton, Florida is known for videotaping pranks and posting the videos on YouTube. He was however arrested one time for giving wedgies outside a Florida movie theater. Police said that Ross grabbed people by the back of the pants and pulled them up hard. He was arrested on battery charges. Ross agreed with the charges and apologized to anyone he offended as he was only playing a joke. A few victims filed statements but many were too embarrassed to come forward according to the police.
